=head1 DESCRIPTION
A base class producer designed to be sub-classed to create new TT based
producers cheaply - by simply giving the template to use and sprinkling in some
extra template variables and config.
You can find an introduction to this module in L<SQL::Translator::Manual>.
The 1st thing the module does is convert the produce sub routine call we get
from SQL::Translator into a method call on an object, which we can then
sub-class. This is done with the following code which needs to appear in B<all>
sub classes.
# Convert produce call into an object method call
sub produce { return __PACKAGE__->new( translator => shift )->run; };
See L</PRODUCER OBJECT> below for details.
The upshot of this is we can make new template producers by sub classing this
base class, adding the above snippet and a template.
The module also provides a number of hooks into the templating process,
see L</SUB CLASS HOOKS> for details.
See the L</SYNOPSIS> above for an example of creating a simple producer using
a single template stored in the producers DATA section.
=head1 SUB CLASS HOOKS
Sub-classes can override these methods to control the templating by giving
the template source, adding variables and giving config to the Tempate object.
=head2 tt_config
sub tt_config { ( INTERPOLATE => 1 ); }
Return hash of Template config to add to that given to the L<Template> C<new>
method.
=head2 tt_schema
sub tt_schema { "foo.tt"; }
sub tt_schema { local $/ = undef; \<DATA>; }
The template to use, return a file name or a scalar ref of TT
source, or an L<IO::Handle>. See L<Template> for details, as the return from
this is passed on to it's C<produce> method.
The default implementation uses the producer arg C<ttfile> as a filename to read
the template from. If the arg isn't there it will look for a C<__DATA__> section
in the class, reading it as template source if found. Returns undef if both
these fail, causing the produce call to fail with a 'no template!' error.
=head2 tt_vars
sub tt_vars { ( foo => "bar" ); }
Return hash of template vars to use in the template. Nothing added here
by default, but see L</tt_default_vars> for the variables you get for free.
=head2 tt_default_vars
Return a hash-ref of the default vars given to the template.
You wouldn't normally over-ride this, just inherit the default implementation,
to get the C<translator> & C<schema> variables, then over-ride L</tt_vars> to add
your own.
The current default variables are:
=over 4
=item schema
The schema to template.
=item translator
The L<SQL::Translator> object.
=back
=head2 pre_process_schema
WARNING: This method is Experimental so may change!
Called with the L<SQL::Translator::Schema> object and should return one (it
doesn't have to be the same one) that will become the C<schema> variable used
in the template.
Gets called from tt_default_vars.
=head1 PRODUCER OBJECT
The rest of the methods in the class set up a sub-classable producer object.
You normally just inherit them.
=head2 new
my $tt_producer = TT::Base->new( translator => $translator );
Construct a new TT Producer object. Takes a single, named arg of the
L<SQL::Translator> object running the translation. Dies if this is not given.
=head2 translator
Return the L<SQL::Translator> object.
=head2 schema
Return the L<SQL::Translator::Schema> we are translating. This is equivalent
to C<< $tt_producer->translator->schema >>.
=head2 run
Called to actually produce the output, calling the sub class hooks. Returns the
produced text.
=head2 args
Util wrapper method around C<< TT::Base->translator->producer_args >> for
(mostly) readonly access to the producer args. How it works depends on the
number of arguments you give it and the context.
No args - Return hashref (the actual hash in Translator) or hash of args.
1 arg - Return value of the arg with the passed name.
2+ args - List of names. In list context returns values of the given arg
names, returns as a hashref in scalar context. Any names given
that don't exist in the args are returned as undef.
This is still a bit messy but is a handy way to access the producer args when
you use your own to drive the templating.

=head1 TODO
- Add support for a sqlf template repository, set as an INCLUDE_PATH,
so that sub-classes can easily include file based templates using relative
paths.
- Pass in template vars from the producer args and command line.
- Merge in L<TT::Table|SQL::Translator::Producer::TT::Table>.
- Hooks to pre-process the schema and post-process the output.
